Central flat with private access, minutes from station — perfect for first-time buyers.
Private entrance and no onward chain
This bright first-floor maisonette offers an easily manageable city-centre base with a private entrance and no onward chain — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking convenience and low running costs. The dual-aspect open-plan living room with a contemporary kitchen creates a light, sociable hub for cooking, dining and relaxing. Two double bedrooms and fitted storage in the larger room make practical use of the 657 sq ft layout.
The flat sits on a private road within the Abbey Conservation Area, a short walk to St Albans city centre, mainline station and local parks. Nearby outstanding and good primary schools and a cluster of independent senior schools add long-term appeal for buyers planning a family or keeping resale options open.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (long remaining term of 934 years) with a below-average service charge of £650 and a small ground rent of £12. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated; buyers may wish to consider insulation or other energy-efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds are average; there is excellent mobile signal and no flood risk.
Overall this maisonette offers ready-to-move-in accommodation in a very desirable St Albans location, with scope for modest cosmetic updates to personalise the space and improve energy performance.
